Strengthening our city.
It’s easy to tear down. It’s difficult to build.
It’s easy to tear things down. It’s harder to build a future for our community. It’s harder to face people who may or may not agree with you and show up and do the work anyway.
The people in the images throughout this site are Lewiston. They live here. They work here. They care deeply about Lewiston's future. And they’re not alone—people across our community are stepping up to shape what’s next. They have different beliefs, different ideas, different backgrounds, different political perspectives. We are made stronger by acknowledging our differences, respecting them, and welcoming builders and helpers.
The people doing this work, including those at the City of Lewiston, are in it for the long haul. We work and build and figure out solutions because it’s right—not because it’s easy. That takes heart, vision, hard work, and a belief in a better future.
We know our community has our share of challenges. The difference? This is Lewiston. We are facing what’s hard. We are fixing what’s broken. We are building what’s next.
We're here for it - for you and for our community - no matter what.
When we say “This is Lewiston…”
This is Lewiston is a campaign that represents our community as we are now: vibrant, hard-working, and full of connection and opportunity.
This is Lewiston also represents the community we know is possible. We know there are challenges here. Like those who built Lewiston over 200 years ago, we don’t shy away from those challenges. We acknowledge them. We work toward solutions. We succeed, we fail, and we try again until we get it right.
This is Lewiston is about a community worth the investment. This is who we are. This is Lewiston.
